Horrified to learn today that in the 5 years since the Paris Agreement, the world’s 60 biggest banks have financed fossil fuels to the tune of $3.8T. Top of the list is @Chase, which provides both @amazon & @united's reward cards. So what did I do? (next) ran.org/bankingonclima…

First, I cancelled my card as personal action is impt! But it's not sufficient. So next, I emailed customer serv explaining why. Then, I reached out to their sustainability team, **expressed my appreciation for what they'd already done** & asked if they'd consider a new provider.

And lastly, of course, I posted here too! Why? Because I hope you'll join me! The more voices we have encouraging companies to do the right thing, the better. It's all of our shared future that's at stake. There is no planet B.

Here's the headline data. The report has much more.

I've created a new list of climate-friendly banks and financial institutions here. Please give it a look for ideas and let me know who I've missed. twitter.com/i/lists/137512…
